-At least 22 people have been shot dead in a mass shooting in Lewiston, Maine, and 50-60 people injured at three different locations

-Robert Card, a 40-year-old Army reservist and firearms instructor from Bowdoin, is named by police as 'a person of interest': his empty car has been found

-They have issued a photo of the suspect entering Sparetime bowling alley at 7:15pm; they were also called to a bar and a Walmart distribution center

A massive manhunt is underway in Maine for an Army reserve firearms instructor who was sectioned this summer for mental health reasons, and is suspected of shooting dead 22 people on Wednesday night at multiple sites in Lewiston.

Robert Card, 40, from Bowdoin, Maine, was named by Maine state police as the a 'person of interest' in the shootings at a bowling alley, restaurant and Walmart distribution center.

He was sectioned after saying he was hearing voices, and threatening to shoot up his National Guard base in Saco, Maine.

Card was armed with an AR 15-style rifle with laser optics when he burst into the bowling alley at 7:15pm to begin his rampage.

He was driving a 2013 white Subaru: Eric Samson, sheriff of Androscoggin County, announced at 11:20pm that law enforcement officers have found the vehicle in Lisbon, about seven miles southeast of Lewiston - but Card was not inside.

Mike Sauschuck, a law enforcement spokesperson in Lewiston, said Card 'is considered armed and dangerous.'

“Is there much of a difference between Bush and Obama?”

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Obama is Bush in a hurry.

(1000 points to anyone getting the reference.)

“Only the police and military should have guns.”

My firearms fell out of my canoe last year. Thing tipped right over on me on a hunting trip. I barely made it to shore.

The “frequent flyers” are as much a threat as the 9-11-01 flyer/hijackers.

Declaring that “eloped” patients have determined that their treatment has ended (and therefore are free to do whatever the he# they wish) is literally allowing the inmates to run the asylum.

It is not the same man. The birth dates are different. From what I have read the surname Card is common in the area.

Is the term maybe being used as it is by the military since he was a reservist?

Shouldn’t you be trolling elsewhere, like, say, at Democratic Underground with the rest of the Dumpster DUmmies?!

They really should make gun lifejackets. I’ve been reading about these tragic boating accidents for 25 years or so.

I saw that too. I have watched films of the atrocities at Baba Yar among others. Unarmed men, women, boys, girls, and babies shot by. Give up your guns, give up your freedoms. Watch as your family is executed before your eyes.

In the early days of Israel, the holocaust survivors who moved there, were not treated kindly.

They were resented because of the perception that they didn’t fight back, while many in Israel fought for Israel’s independence. They couldn’t fathom how they could just let it happen without fighting back.

It wasn’t until the Eichmann Trial, when they heard from the witnesses what really happened, that it started to change.

I don't. Maybe the Mooch has a bigger "package".

Only the police and military should have guns.

Are you being sarcastic, or sincere? And, you signed up in January. Would you happen to be trolling here looking for a wild response? Let us know...tell us how you REALLY feel.

And nobody had a gun? My younger son at 40 yards with a 9mm pistol would put 12 of 14 rounds into him.
